    Dude, I'm just happy we have a Trump supporter that admitted he did something wrong. Baby steps here.

    "Go buy Ivanka's stuff," Trump senior adviser Kellyanne Conway told Fox News in an interview from the White House. "I'm going to get some myself today."

    The GOP voters have no shame.

    It's one thing to attack a business for its policies, it's another thing to attack a business for rejecting your daughter's brand.

    Notice how none of our GOP friends care about this. If this was Hillary or Obama they would be screaming foul and demanding impeachment.

    Crooked Trump

    Hardly anyone agrees with this. She was even 'counciled' by her own administration. more fantasies from SW42

    LOL. Nepotism is nepotism. Conway is the counselor for Trump, you going to sit there and tell me you believe Trump didn't tell her anything? This is low even for you.

    Likely scenario:

    Trump to Conway - go out there and talk about buying Ivanka's. She did so. WH counselor watching news and seeing that - oh sh*t, that's breaking the law. WH counsel her.

    side note - If I'm Bannon... I would consider Trump and the admin creating a personal business unethical move anytime I want to take attention away from those other crazy stufs.

    For the same thing I wouldn't patronize political groups: I don't like their message. Not sure about Conway, haven't had time to review the whole vid.

    Yeah, I think so. Well, at least half, considering it was a retweet. If it was just @realDonaldTrump, it shouldn't be a problem.

    Step 2 is figuring out whether there it was predetermined abuse of power or oversight.

    Anyone else would have been fired, instead she gets "counciled" according to you.

    "Hey Kelly, you can't say things like that to those nasty media people. now, as punishment, come here so I can grab your p***y"

    Which is why he never released his TAX RETURNS . . .cause they would show he is in debt
    and needs the money. So now he can make billions and then show the AFTER tax returns
    and brag about how great a business man he is. . . .

    He selling America for his own pockets

    Actually no, that wasn't according to me. If you bothered to follow up on the story, you would know this.

    We don't know what his tax returns show. It's incredible that he was elected without showing them. The audit excuse is simply bogus. Nixon released his returns while under audit. The IRS has declared that there is nothing preventing Trump from releasing them. That he has yet to release them tells me that he has something to hide. It could be similar to what you described, could be not so bad (then why hasn't he released them?), or they could show something worse. I lean towards what you described or worse, RR.

    I'm shocked that Trump supporters seem to be unconcerned that they know next to nothing about the man.

    I think it's quite obvious Conway is taking the heat because Trump decided to tweet about his daughter and her product line earlier......She doing the dirty work of taking the attention and criticism off him and onto her. They play everyone so well.....However it's sad how incompetent this group is. This world is not going to be the same after these guys are done. It's going to change and not for the better.

    Yes Trump is setting a new pathetic level in politics and the GOP doesn't care.

    I fear this is the beginning of the end for Americans shining star. The low-information xenophobes have put this moron in power and he is destroying a 241 year legacy.

    Says the guy with the habit of being proven wrong than running away?

    I have to ask SG, did your parents raise you with any distinction between right and wrong? Did lying and outright immoral behavior have a special place in your household? Its hard to tell with your behavior. SAD.

    People voting with their wallets, and our dictator in chief doesn't like it. Terrible!

    Free market is dead under our dictator in chief. Unpresidented!

    You criticized him on his character and then you attack him personally. Kind of throwing away your pretend moral high ground there.

    No one knows for sure whether or not Nordstrom really dropped Ivanka's brand for underperforming. This forum is liberal leaning so we haven't really explored the idea that they were making a political statement against Trump. They've hardly been the first one. Nordstrom will be boycotted too, I'm sure.

    Do you have any evidence the charges didn't have merit? Or are you just making that up to fit whatever narrative you want to believe?

    The Trumpanzees are really going to lose their **** when they realize John W. Nordstrom was an immigrant.
